like the engine but hate the rear wing spoiler, looks like a camaro

So, how is it "Pro Touring" ("ultra" even) with the stock suspension? Ok, so maybe there's something up front but no pictures of it. Looks like someone was just too cheap to polish the trim so they stripped it all or painted it black. For that price it should come with a front bumper and grill that aren't bent.

I was thinking Monza on the spoiler.

Well, lose the wheels and replace the tail lights and bumpers and paint the tail panel black and it's all better. Except the fact that it's 1/4 million $.

Hmmm...I have a '71 Camaro Z/28 spoiler in the garage.... :scratchchin: :lol: I like the idea of the build but they did a shitty job with the finished product IMO. Way too much red. The rear spoiler would of looked better in a brushed aluminum style colour like some of the vintage Nascars. Bumpers would of looked better chrome, hell the whole car needs more chrome. Wheels gotta go. Like I said, they got way too overboard with the red paint...even the taillight and marker bezels are painted red! :eek2: I do really like the front seats though....

Is there some secret contest these customizing "designers" are having to see who can take the most beautifully styled car ever and turn it into the ugliest thing on wheels? Because the last few attempts I've seen have all been puke fodder.  :puke:

It needs chrome trim.....The spoiler is kinda ugly too....would've been better off with a Daytona wing instead.  Engine compartment looks okay....too much red in my opinion...and they painted over the Charger logo on the grill....I think they could have detailed the grill a bit better.....almost looks as if the grill is missing.....i dunno money was misplaced in a lot of places where it should have been spent.

The Charger would look great if they'd

-Lose the ugly rims
-Put chrome back on the Charger, including the bumpers
-Lose the wing
-Break up the red with a black stripe

I just went through the pictures with my 15 year old son. He likes painting cars in a crappy way on his video games. But all he kept saying each time I clicked a new picture was too much red. Near the end he said the only chrome is the gas cap. So even kids that normally like this thinks its too much

The wingy thing on the back is a definite no go for me.  It just looks.... unfinished is the only way I can describe it.(like it just left the booth and needs to be put back together).  I also agree with putting some chrome back on it.

  Um... well.. it's "unique".   The camaro spoiler gives most haters something to focus on.

     Considering how expensive red paint is these days it's a wonder how much they went through to avoid going to the chrome shop or getting some repro parts.

       Also "3.23  Dana 60"?     Not likely.  Small chance for a Dana 61 tho.    Also possible is a 3.23 8.75 and a "mistake" on the specs. 

          It's not my style... and not my price range.      :shruggy:    Looks like somebody built a red sled and thinks they're gonna get rich like it was 2006 still.   NOT.

Not for anything, but do some of these builders even know what "stance" means?  maybe big wheels aren't your cup of tea, but I think we would all agree that a car with larger than stock wheels needs to be lower, no?  isn't that what they teach  in custom car kindergarten? 

and that interior?  I'm not impressed at all.
